Hi, i uploaded a beta with a few fixes. i also replaced the mtxrun.cmd etc file by executables (windows stubs only); on tex live we have a call chain: *.exe -> *.cmd|bat -> whatever and we don't want that many calls (and files) so i copied the regular runner and patched it into a mtxrun (.exe) this means that users who run mtxrun from an editor (default scite setup) should change mtxrun.cmd into mtxrun.exe (the same is true for luatools, texexec and texmfstart, where the later is actually replaced by mxrun) (btw, if you want a stub to for instance "mtxrun --script font" then you can just copy mtxrun.exe to mtx-fonts.exe and have a more direct call Hans ----------------------------------------------------------------- Hans Hagen | PRAGMA ADE Ridderstraat 27 | 8061 GH Hasselt | The Netherlands tel: 038 477 53 69 | fax: 038 477 53 74 | www.pragma-ade.com | www.pragma-pod.nl -----------------------------------------------------------------

I just came back. I guess that I should start fixing the (already broken?) windows installation :)
no need for fixing, it's just stubs .. just make sure that you copy the dll and exe files from the stub paths (and get rid of cmd/bat files when an exe is there) so, we had 'mtxrun.cmd' and now we have 'mtxrun.exe' (mtxrun, luatools, texexec, context, ...) there is not much impact, only for users who call mtxrun.cmd (which reminds me that i need to fix the texworks ini file ... i haven't used texworks for ages) Hans ----------------------------------------------------------------- Hans Hagen | PRAGMA ADE Ridderstraat 27 | 8061 GH Hasselt | The Netherlands tel: 038 477 53 69 | fax: 038 477 53 74 | www.pragma-ade.com | www.pragma-pod.nl -----------------------------------------------------------------

hm, interesting ... i have no 64 bit windows so it's hard to test ... maybe there is some magic gcc flag that prevents these problems does a luatex 32 bit run on 64 bit windows?

Sorry. I thought the problem showed up in old Windows, not in the new one. I can confirm that the binaries fail to run on 64-bit Windows 7. LuaTeX and other binaries (from Akira) run just fine. But context.exe seems to be 16-bit binary, not 32-bit. At least this is what the error report says. Mojca
